Perfekt
Pros:

Unser Rückflug um 4 Uhr in der Früh wurde wegen starkem Wind abgesagt und wir mussten uns in der Früh ein Hotel für 2 Nacht suchen.
Das Hotel organisierte uns für diese 1 Nacht ein Zimmer zum einchecken bereits um 09 Uhr! Wir konnten uns Schlaf von der kurzen Nacht zuvor nachholen.
Die Hotelangestellten waren sehr freundlich und wir konnten in der Früh ein zusätzliches Frühstück buchen.

Cons:

Nichts, es war alles sehr schön, sauber und mit Blick auf das Meer.

Empfehlenswert
Pros:

Wir mochten die Lage direkt am Meer sehr, es gibt viele gute Restaurants, das Hotel ist schlicht und genau das was wir erwartet haben, das Zimmer ist schön groß und alles hat gut funktioniert. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich! Wir würden es empfehlen.

Cons:

Die Parksituation - vor der Tür ist selten etwas frei und man bezahlt stündlich. Der nächste Parkplatz ist bergauf so circa 5 min entfernt.

Urlaub in Machico
Pros:

Kleines Hotel, famieliäres Gefühl, alle sehr freundlich,
Nicht weit zum Wasser, man hat das Meer rauschen hören.

Cons:

Etwas laut unter dem Fenster...besonders früh wochentags und laute Eletroladestation für Autos (besonders Nachts) wargenommen als Dauerpfeifton.
